Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - January 28th, 2026

Wednesday brings nine games on the NBA schedule, with all nine games on the main DFS slate on both FanDuel and DraftKings. The injury news continues to make an impact, with Jarace Walker, Kel’el Ware, Josh Hart, Collin Murray-Boyles, Cooper Flagg, Klay Thompson, Jusuf Nurkic, Cody Williams, and Jeremy Sochan all questionable to play.

This is a standard caveat for this article, but with so many injury situations, it will be critical to pay attention to the injury news and starting lineups. Even minor injuries can disrupt the slate when a minimum-priced player gets surprisingly elevated into the starting lineup, so with late swap, it’s essential to monitor the starting lineups on a slate this large with so many injury situations.
